Rooster Life. Life Lessons.

Rooster Day! 
We had another day of butchering and learning on the mini farm. We unfortunately paid for chicks in March that were supposed to be hens but we ended up with too many roosters. 
Thankfully, they were a larger breed so it was worth butchering for meat. 
Everyone helped and saw all parts of the process. We ended up with about 5 gallons of broth as well.  


We ended up timing the butchering and it really only took less than 10 minutes a bird. 


I had left over chicken feet from our last butchering event so we had lots of feet in the pot.
